[SAtalk] spamassassin on a mail relay

2002-04-29 Thread Pete O';Hara
Hi, I am running spamassassin on a mail relay and it seems that my procmail recipe is breaking aliases on the downstream mail servers. I am running Postfix-1.1.7-2 on the mail relay and it is configured to pass all mail to procmail for filtering (this is done as a special user "filter") where /hom

2003-08-28 Thread Pete O';Hara
Hi, Sorry if this has been discussed before. I looked through the archives and didn't see mention of this in any titles. Feel free to flame if this has been a beaten horse. I am looking for a tool/script that can tell me what percentage of spam was caught due to the additional Bayes points or

[SAtalk] 2.60 message/scan count

2003-09-10 Thread Pete O';Hara
Hi, RTFM me if this is obvious but I looked googled, archived and read docs and couldn't find how to how many messages have been scanned in 2.60. It looks like the old bayes_msgcount file is no longer used. sa-learn --dump doesn't seem to provide this info either. From: 2.60: lib/Mail/SpamAssas

Hi, I an not seeing auto expiry occuring which I believe I have the correct configuration for. I am running SA-2.60-rc5, DB_File-1.806. In /etc/mail/spamassassin/local.cf (yes this file is being read based on the sa-learn -D output) I have use_bayes 1 bayes_auto_learn 1 bayes_auto_learn_threshol

[SAtalk] 2.60 minimal negative scores

2003-06-03 Thread Pete O';Hara
Hi, My appologies if this topic has been covered already. I did do some searching though and didn't come up with anything. I am looking at 2.60 rules/50_scores.cf and am noticing that there are almost no negative local rules. I am actually tweaking my 2.54 rules and was thinking about removing
